## Vidjil – Documentation
*The Vidjil team (Mathieu, Mikaël, Aurélien, Florian, Marc, Ryan and Tatiana)*
**[Vidjil](http://www.vidjil.org) is an open-source platform for the analysis of high-throughput
sequencing data from lymphocytes.** [V(D)J recombinations](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/V\(D\)J_recombination) in lymphocytes are
essential for immunological diversity. They are also useful markers of
pathologies, and in leukemia, are used to quantify the minimal residual
disease during patient follow-up. High-throughput sequencing (NGS/HTS) now
enables the deep sequencing of a lymphoid population with dedicated [Rep-Seq](http://omictools.com/rep-seq-c424-p1.html)
methods and software.
### Web application, user documentation
- Tutorial "Mastering the Vidjil web application": [english](./tutorial/mastering-vidjil.html) ([pdf](./tutorial/mastering-vidjil.pdf)), [français](./tutorial/mastering-vidjil-fr.html)
([pdf](./tutorial/mastering-vidjil-fr.pdf)). Start by this tutorial to have an overview of Vidjil.
- Web application [user manual](user.md)
- [Demo access](http://app.vidjil.org/) to the patient, experiment and sample server
- [Public datasets](http://www.vidjil.org/data/) supporting Vidjil publications
### Algorithm, web application, server, developper documentation
- [Vidjil-algo documentation](vidjil-algo.md)
- [Encoding clones with V(D)J recombinations](vidjil-format.md), specification of the `.vidjil` file format
- [Docker/Server installation and maintenance](server.md)
These documentations and additional developer and maintainer documentation
are availaible from the [doc/](http://gitlab.vidjil.org/tree/master/doc) directory in the source files.
